Magpies boss Kevin Nolan, who worked with Brisley at Leyton Orient, said he was delighted with his latest capture in what is expected to be the first of several new signings over the coming weeks.

"I'm absolutely delighted Shaun's joined us," he said.

"I loved working with him at Orient and I still think we can bring out a lot more in him. He's a fantastic addition to what is already a very strong squad.

"He's a great lad on and off the field. He's a leader, he talks, he heads the ball, he does all the nitty-gritty stuff - and he can play as well. We're really looking forward to working with him again."

Notts have been eager to supplement their backline with more experience all summer and Brisley boasts plenty of having played more than 230 league games in his career.

The 27-year-old started out at Macclesfield where he started 117 games for the Silkmen and his performances earned him a move to Peterborough in May 2012.
